Details
Summary
CVE-2023-37579 is an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in Apache Software Foundation Apache Pulsar Function Worker. This vulnerability affects Apache Pulsar versions before 2.10.4 and 2.11.0. It allows any authenticated user to access the configuration of a source or sink without authorization, potentially leading to leaked credentials as many configurations contain sensitive information. The vulnerability can be mitigated by upgrading the Pulsar Function Worker to a patched version: 2.10 users should upgrade to at least 2.10.4, and 2.11 users should upgrade to at least 2.11.1. Organizations running Pulsar Function Worker versions 2.9 and earlier should also upgrade to a newer version to address this issue. The potential danger of this vulnerability is high confidentiality impact, as it can expose sensitive information and credentials if exploited by an authenticated user with low privileges.
